Rising tide . . . . . this one caught me by surprise, unaware plans unmade, no charted course, unsolicited in summer nights, when crickets screamed, but something whispered. I took her hand and walked ahead, a natural pace reaching sand, swinging with breezes, held in home, the point, sublime. sun sinking against an auburn sky, auspicious belonging, rising tides . #poem #poet #poetsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #writing #poetsofig #writer #poetrycommunity #poems #wordporn #writersofig #words #spilledink #instapoet #poets #creativewriting #instapoem #writers #writerscommunity #instapoetry #writingcommunity #spokenword #poetryisnotdead #risingtide #auspicious #belonging #surprise
